FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a plunge pool cost?
Each Sydney backyard is unique, so an accurate installation quote requires a site inspection. Factors like soil quality, access, and easements can all impact installation costs. Generally speaking our plunge pools start at $40,000++.
What pool shapes do you offer?
We provide both custom and precast concrete plunge pools. While custom pools allow for more personalised designs, our precast options can be installed in just a few days. Contact us to get a quote for your ideal pool size and shape.
Can I install an above-ground plunge pool?
Yes, our pools can be installed fully above ground, partially in-ground, or fully in-ground—whatever suits your space and vision.
Is a fence required around an above-ground pool?
If your pool is installed at least 1.2m above ground, the external pool wall may qualify as part of your pool fence, adding a layer of protection. However, a secure entry fence is required, as well as fencing around the skimmer box.
How often should I change the water in my plunge pool?
Generally, we recommend draining the water every three years. Regular water checks at your local pool store will help ensure it stays balanced and safe for your family.
How long should the pump run each day?
For optimal water quality, we recommend running your pump for about 1.8 hours each day.
Do you offer magnesium options?
Yes, we include magnesium mineral systems as part of our standard packages.*
What should I consider before buying a plunge pool?
Think about your backyard layout to determine where your plunge pool will fit best. Pools come in various shapes and sizes, so whether you’re envisioning a round, rectangular, or customised design, we’ll help you find the ideal solution. Remember to plan for decking or patio space around the pool for a seamless outdoor area.
Will I need a crane for installation?
In many cases, we can lift the pool into place with our crane truck. To do this, the truck usually needs to be within one meter of the installation location.
What’s the best surface for my pool base?
To ensure the integrity of your plunge pool, the base should be 100mm thick, level, and properly compacted. An unlevel base may cause the pool to crack, which is not covered under warranty.
Can you install pool heating?
Yes, we recommend electric heat pumps as an efficient way to keep your plunge pool at a comfortable temperature.
Can I fill my pool with tank water?
Yes, our plunge pools are designed to be filled with tank water if desired.
What chemical system is best for a plunge pool?
We offer two options: a natural magnesium system, or Crystal Waters, which is free from chlorine, bromine, and odors. Both are effective at maintaining clean, healthy water. Contact us for more information.
